Implications of climate change for invasive species
4/29/2021 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM
Event Description
PRESENTER:Bethany Bradley, Ph.D., Professor of Biogeography and Invasion Ecology, Department of Environmental Conservation, University of Massachusetts
Invasive species and climate change are two of the most prominent forms of anthropogenic global change identified by the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment. Invasive species have pronounced negative impacts on ecosystems and economies, and these impacts may be exacerbated by climate change. But, for most invasive species and invaded ecosystems, the outcomes of this interaction remain unknown. This presentation will review the current state of knowledge about how climate change influences invasive species.
